EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling workroom of The Bezalel School of Arts & Crafts in Jerusalem, Israel, established in 1906 by the visionary Lithuanian Jewish artist and sculptor, Boris Schatz (pictured left in a white suit). The school, located on Abyssinia Street, was founded with the goal of training the people of Jerusalem in various crafts, developing original Jewish art and supporting Jewish artists. Schatz sought to create a synthesis between European artistic traditions and the Jewish design traditions of the East and West, integrating it with the local culture of the Land of Israel. The students of The Bezalel School are seen here intently focusing on their craft, with intricate Damascus metalwork patterns adorning the benches and tools around them. The Damascus metal technique, which involves the fusion of multiple layers of metal to create intricate designs, was one of many crafts taught at the school. The students were not only taught the techniques but also the business aspects of their craft, ensuring they could become self-sufficient artisans and craftsmen. Boris Schatz's dream was to provide a platform for the much-yearned-for national and spiritual independence of the Jewish people through the visual arts. The school's workroom served as a hub for creativity, innovation, and the preservation of traditional craftsmanship. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of The Bezalel School of Arts & Crafts and its enduring impact on the artistic landscape of Jerusalem and Israel.
